Actually, unstable got 2.64-1 _and_ 2.65-1 by now.

Simon: Are these uploads necessary to fix the security issue this
unblock request talks about (CVE-2012-3411)?

If so, can you please close this unblock request and open a new one?

If not, it would be better to upload new versions to experimental
during the freeze. Your best option (AFAICT) is to prepare an upload to
t-p-u now.

Thanks.

A new upstream release was uploaded to unstable since then, so this
unblock request can't be satisfied as is. Please either update or
close it.

Then, this matter goes way out of the scope of my humble "help the
release team with a few easy reviews" effort.

The new upstream version includes quite a few changes that are
unrelated to the security fix, which probably partly explains why
nobody reviewed the proposed changes yet.

However, determining which exact set of patches should be backported
from upstream to fix this issue is not trivial, and I guess that's why
Moritz asks for the whole think to be unblocked:

54dd393 (Add --bind-dynamic) is obvious, but a few follow-up commits
come to fix the problems brought by the initial implementation; at
least these two ones seem needed:

  * 2b5bae9 -- Fall back from --bind-dynamic to --bind-interfaces in
BSD, rather than quitting
  * 5f11b3e -- Cope with --listen-address for not yet existent addr in
bind-dynamic mode

... and I would not bet that's enough.

Simon, are you interested in listing the commits that are needed,
on top of 2.62-3, to fix CVE-2012-3411 without breaking anything?




I'd strongly suggest moving to 2.63-4, rather than backporting. The 
changes for the security fix are not trivial, and probablity of 
introducing a bug backporting is much larger that the probablity that 
there's an un-found bug in 2.63 which is not in 2.62. There are no 
intended backwards incompatibilities between 2.63 and 2.62, and no 
un-intended ones have been found in the three months since 2.63 was 
released.



Cheers,

Simon.
